Cap Ferret Beach House

It needed to age well, hence the rough bandsawn finish of both
the kitchen units and the floor. It could not be simpler in many
ways, yet it is totally bespoke; in the pantry, which opens off the
kitchen, there are special sloping shelves designed to hold crates
of fresh peaches from the market, and boxes lined with linen that
can store up to 10 loaves of bread. Jonathan has added
light-hearted touches such as the clock hanging from the kitchen
ceiling and the way the floorboards appear to climb up the wall,
giving the impression of a tidemark.
